AC Milan veteran Inzaghi decides to hang up boots

Pippo Inzaghi admits he's disappointed to be leaving AC Milan.

The striker is retiring at the age of 38 and did so with the winning half-volley when beating Novara 2-1.

"There are no words. I trained hard yesterday despite the fact today was going to be a celebration and I prepared for this goal," said SuperPippo.

"With this jersey I have scored 300 goals and made 300 appearances in this stadium, in front of my people.

"It is a wonderful sensation. I feel good and it is difficult to leave. Playing somewhere that isn't Milan is also a tough idea to swallow, so I'll take a few days to decide.

"I will certainly come back here to Milan, because there is such a great love binding us that it cannot end today."
